Description

척추 수술용 케이지{CAGE FOR SPINAL SURGERY}Cage for spine surgery {CAGE FOR SPINAL SURGERY}

본 발명은 척추에 시술되는 척추 수술용 케이지에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a cage for spinal surgery that is operated on the spine.

일반적으로 척추는 통상 24개(천추골제외)의 뼈로 이루어져 각각의 뼈 사이에는 디스크라 불리는 관절에 의해 연결되어 척추를 지지하며 완충작용을 할 수 있게 구성되어 있다. 이를 통하여 척추는 인간의 자세를 유지할 수 있게 도와줄 뿐만 아니라, 운동의 토대가 되며 내장 기관을 보호하는 중요한 역할을 하고 있다.In general, the spine is usually composed of 24 bones (excluding the sacrum), and between each bone is connected by a joint called a disc to support the spine and to act as a buffer. Through this, the spine not only helps maintain human posture, but also serves as a basis for movement and plays an important role in protecting internal organs.

그러나 비정상적인 자세가 오랫동안 유지되거나, 노화에 따른 퇴행성 질환 또는 외부로부터 충격을 받게 되면 척추 뼈 마디의 디스크가 손상되어 척추 디스크 질환이 발생할 수 있는데, 이러한 척추 디스크 질환은 척추 뼈 마디를 통해 인체의 각 부분에 연결되는 신경이 압박되어 통증을 유발하게 된다.However, if an abnormal posture is maintained for a long time, degenerative diseases due to aging, or an external shock is received, the disc of the vertebral bone node may be damaged and vertebral disc disease may occur. The nerves that connect to it are compressed, causing pain.

따라서, 척추 디스크 환자는 신경이 눌리거나 압박되지 않도록 손상된 디스크를 제거하고, 중공형의 금속 또는 플라스틱 재질로 이루어진 케이지에 뼈 조각을 채워 디스크를 제거한 부위에 삽입하는 방식이 시술되고 있다.Therefore, a method of removing the damaged disc so that the nerve is not compressed or compressed in the spinal disc patient is inserted into the area from which the disc is removed by filling a cage made of a hollow metal or plastic material with bone fragments.

이러한 척추 수술용 케이지는 척추 뼈와의 유합(fusion)이 중요한 부분이나, 종래의 케이지의 경우 척추 뼈와 유합이 잘 이루어지지 않는 문제점이 존재하였다.In this cage for spinal surgery, fusion with the vertebrae is an important part, but in the case of the conventional cage, there is a problem in that fusion with the vertebrae is not performed well.

또한, 다공성의 케이지를 사용하는 경우 주변 골조직과의 유합이 용이하나 척추 뼈를 지탱하기 위한 강도가 떨어지는 문제가 있었다.In addition, when a porous cage is used, it is easy to merge with the surrounding bone tissue, but there is a problem in that the strength for supporting the vertebrae is low.

Announcement) 대한민국 공개특허공보 제10-2019-0134903호(발명의 명칭: 척추 유합용 케이지, 2019. 12. 05. 공개)Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2019-0134903 (Title of the invention: Cage for spinal fusion, published on Dec. 05, 2019)

본 발명은 상기와 같은 점을 감안하여 창안된 것으로서, 탄력성을 가진 탄성 구조체와 다공성 구조체를 결합시켜 척추 뼈를 탄력적으로 지지함과 아울러 골유합율을 증대시킬 수 있도록 된 척추 수술용 케이지를 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention was devised in view of the above points, and provides a cage for spine surgery that combines an elastic structure with elasticity and a porous structure to elastically support the vertebrae and increase the rate of osseointegration. There is a purpose.

상술한 본 발명의 목적을 달성하기 위한 바람직한 실시예에 따르면, 본 발명에 따른 척추 수술용 케이지는 일측 단부가 돌출된 프레임의 양측에 각각 복수개의 판 스프링이 구비된 탄성 구조체, 및 상기 탄성 구조체에 의해 탄력적으로 지지되면서 상기 탄성 구조체에 결합되고, 이웃하는 척추 뼈 사이의 공간에 배치됨과 아울러 표면에 골성장을 위한 복수개의 골유합용 홀이 형성된 다공성 구조체를 포함할 수 있다.According to a preferred embodiment for achieving the above object of the present invention, the cage for spinal surgery according to the present invention is an elastic structure provided with a plurality of leaf springs, respectively, on both sides of a frame from which one end protrudes, and the elastic structure It may include a porous structure coupled to the elastic structure while being elastically supported by a porous structure having a plurality of osseointegration holes for bone growth on the surface while being disposed in the space between the neighboring vertebral bones.

상기 탄성 구조체는 상기 다공성 구조체의 외측에 배치되는 상기 판 스프링이 상하방향으로 일정 간격을 두고 설치되어 상기 다공성 구조체에 가해지는 하중을 지지할 수 있다.In the elastic structure, the leaf springs disposed on the outside of the porous structure may be installed at regular intervals in the vertical direction to support the load applied to the porous structure.

상기 프레임은 상기 탄성 구조체의 진입방향을 기준으로 전방에 돌출부가 형성되고, 상기 프레임의 후방에 척추 수술장치가 삽입되는 고정홀이 형성될 수 있다.The frame may have a protrusion formed in the front with respect to the entry direction of the elastic structure, and a fixing hole into which the spinal surgery device is inserted in the rear of the frame may be formed.
